Foreknowledge of God
Acts 2:23; Romans 8:29; 11:2; 1 Peter 1:2), one of those high attributes essentially appertaining to him the full import of which we cannot comprehend. In the most absolute sense his knowledge is infinite (1 Samuel 23:9-13; Jeremiah 38:17-23; 42:9-22; Matthew 11:21, 23; Acts 15:18).
